Hello all,

So, I started graduate school in September and, um, promptly gained 28.5 pounds. Give or take. I also started an antidepressant last June to help my extremely debilitating panic disorder and agoraphobia. I mention it because it's the reason I was able to go to grad school, and it also might be the reason why I gained so much weight. But I don't think so. I think I'm just looking for something to blame. (I've read lots of studies - the drug I'm on doesn't cause significant weight gain.)

Anyway, I'm here to conquer the world and my weight all at once! Today was the first time I worked out in, I'm ashamed to say, about a month. It was HARD. I thought I was dying, Biggest Loser-style. But I did it! I did some yoga afterwards and was shocked to find that the flexibility I'd worked so hard for was no longer. I can't even put my heels down during downward dog.

After looking at the scale today, well, I'm upset. Obviously. I am not happy at this size, and I'd like to be healthy. Also, there's a really cute dress in my closet, waiting for me to put it to good use.
